When Business is Tough
Remember the Basics
This town benefits financially from its visitors so let none of us forget to
get the basic offering right. Well cooked food, cheerfully served in clean
and welcoming establishments; Comfortable beds with the facilities and
style to match the price: Goods that are in perfect order with the features
patiently explained; Services completed according to the agreed timetable
and quality.
The appearance of our town should put a smile of the face of all our
customers and, if we relax and smile too, the feeling of warmth and
pleasure from a visit to Rye will linger in the memory and may help us
next year too. The flowers say welcome. Think ‘repeat customer’ in all
your business dealings. Gibbons Mannington tries hard to foster long
term relationships that are built on mutual respect and the meeting of the
clients’ specific needs. It has worked for this firm since 1887, come rain or
